These government agencies are taking part in Operation Mountain Guardian, made possible due to a grant from the Department of Homeland Security through FEMA Region VIII and the State of Colorado Governor’s Office of Homeland Security, according to KDVR in Denver.

Mock terror drills are being staged at a mall, an elementary school, a community college, a hospital, and multiple transportation hubs, including the Denver airport.

The exercise is scheduled to begin at 5 a.m. and end by 4:30 p.m., according to ABC 7 News in Denver.

KDVR reports that the media will be allowed to report on the events, but a news advisory PDF released by officialdom states media coverage will be restricted to “outside areas.”

In the past, there have been drills going on right before actual terror attacks took place. Still, the possibility of an actual terror event “going live” during the Operation Mountain Guardian is minimal. However, the massive coordinated event in Colorado is designed as part of a larger effort to federalize local officials for the eventual implementation of martial law in response to economic conditions.

In 2008, investigative journalist Wayne Madsen reported information given to him by sources inside FEMA:

“The feds were preparing for martial law triggered by “continuing economic collapse with massive social unrest, bank closures resulting in violence against financial institutions, and another fraudulent presidential election that would result in rioting in major cities and campuses around the country.”

The fact that these drills are going on should show you what the government is expecting to happen.
